Does anyone know the answer to this?
I just started this week and was wondering if anyone knows the answer to my question. If at my starting weight I am allowed 1320 calories a day, as I lose weight do I have to redo the BMR to adjust my calories to continue to lose? Or do I just stay with the original set amount of calories throughout my entire diet plan?…

Living the moment
She was standing in the kitchen preparing to boil eggs for breakfast, wearing only the "T" shirt that she normally slept in. As he walked in barely awake, she turned and said softly, "You've got to make love to me this very moment." His eyes lit up and he thought, "I am either still dreaming or this is going to be my lucky…

However, hydroxycut will make me jittery and probably cause insomnia, and alli is apparently recommended for people who are "overweight" on the BMI scale, which I am not. I…
